Welcome to my wonderful world!
Nothing much happens here. Sometimes I update, sometimes I don't! The only way to find out is to come and visit.
This journal started in July 2004, as a way for me to clear my head. I had recently finished 2 years of treatment for bowel cancer, and was slowly getting my life back on track. I've now come to the conclusion that I will always be trying to get my life back on track, and that I'll just have to live with it! But life is good, life is fun and life continues. I hope you will find that reflected in this journal.
Read, enjoy, comment, leave me a tag and thoroughly enjoy yourself!
shame you've had less posts lately. I don't get too many either!!
Hi All,
Thought it was time for an update. I'm not sure what I'm going to write, because I can't think of anything that's happened that would make even vaguely interesting reading! I suppose I'm just aware that I've not written anything here for a while.
Things are generally good in 'rach and dave land.' We did have a wobbly patch around the middle of the month, but that was because of a lack of communication about a big issue we're trying to work through at the moment. Dave had a differing viewpoint that me, and thought that I'd be upset by it. He's right, I was upset by it, but not to the extent that it would affect our relationship. I suppose we all have blips in our confidence, especially when you're moving a relationship on to a new level, but we're strong, and we know that if we do go ahead with what we've been discussing, then we'll be in it together - and that's what's important.
Supply work is really slow, and I'm just bored and very skint. I could do with cancelling Christmas this year, but we're cracking ahead with the old festive season!
I've made 100 sausage rolls, and plenty of invites to our mince pie and mulled wine party. This week I will be sticking a load of mince pies in the freezer. Usually, I make them in the couple of days running up to the party, but what with my Friday night pulling job, supply teaching and the fact that Dave is at a works do the night before our bash, I need to be well prepared. I'm even considering buying a job lot of mulled wine from Sainsbury's instead of making my own this year... works out cheaper, and is still quite nice - think we might have to quality test a bottle of it this weekend though - just to make sure...
We haven't done much and I don't think we intend to... I'm working this afternoon, and really ought to do some tidying and washing. I've made a start... I've had a bath this morning, but I'm typing this while wrapped up in my towel and dressing gown. There must be some clean clothes SOMEWHERE in the wardrobe!!!
So, love to you all, hope everything is fine, and speak again at some point. xxxx
